知识点2虚拟语气
1.虚拟语气在条件中的用法
情况 从句结构 主语结构 例句
与现在事实相反的情况 if+主语+动词过去式(be动词用were)+其他 主语+should/would/could/might+动词原形+其他 If the weather were f ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )ine, they would go for a swim.如果天气好,他们就去游泳了。(事实是天气不好)If we had time now, w ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )e should/would read it again.要是现在我们有空,我们就把它再看一遍。(事实是我们现在没空)
与过去事实相反的情况 If+主语had+过去分词+其他 主语+should/would/could/might+have+过去分词+其他 If I had take ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )n his ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )advice, I would not have made such a mistake.如果我听了他的忠告,就不会犯这样的错误了。(事实上当初我没有听他的忠告)I should not have laughed if I had thought you were serious.如果我想到你是认真的,我就不会笑了。(事实上是我笑了)
与将来事实相反的情况 词峨他动姗其①if+主语+过去式+其他++②注+主语R+动词原形伽if+主语+.6dd+动词原形+其他 主讲+should/would/could/might+动词原形+其他 If she should come, I ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )would ask her for help.万一她来的话,我就请她帮忙。(事实上她来的可能性很小)If I had time tom ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )orrow,I would certainly go for an outgoing with you·如果我明天有时间,我一定会和你去郊游。If you were to quarrel with him,I should feel very sorry.如果你和他吵架,我会觉得很遗憾。
【知识拓展】1.混合虚拟语气:有时从句和主句分别表示发生在不同时间的动作或状态,这时,主句和从句的谓语动词应根据情况分别使用各自的结构。例如:If he had fol ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )lowed the doctor's advice,he would be quite all right now.他当时若是听从医生的话,现在就会痊愈了。(从句说明过去,主句说明现在)If you were ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )to master English,you should have worked hard. 如果你要掌握英语,你本来应该下苦功的。(从句说明将来,主句说明过去)2.在if虚拟条件句中,如果从句中含有 ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )should, had或were可以省去if,把should, had或were移到主语之前,构成倒装结构。例如:Should it happen(=I ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )f it should happen),what would you do 如果真发生这样的事,你怎么办呢 Were I you(== If I were you),I would go.如果我是你,我就去。Had he recognized ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com ) me(=If he had recognized me) , he would have come over.如果他认出了我,早就走过来了。【易错警示】if only…与only if.二的区别: (1)if only作“只要”讲,引出 ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )真实条件句,谓语动词用陈述语气;if only作“如果……就好了,要是……就好了” 讲,引出虚拟条件句,用来表示强烈的愿望或遗憾,谓语动词用虚拟语气,通常省略主句。例如:If only you work hard,you'll learn English well. 只要你努力学习,你就能学好英语。If only I were you!要是我是你就好了!(2) only if表示“只有在… ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )…情况下才能……,只有在……条件下才能……”,谓语动词用陈述语气;only if从句如果放在主句前,则主句用倒装语序。例如:I wake up only if the alarm clock rings.只有闹钟响了,我才会醒。Only if my teacher helps me can I succeed.只有在老师的帮助下我才能成功。

【易错替示】1. suggest作“ ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )表明、暗示”讲时.从句不用皮拟语气。例如:Mr. Smith's or ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )al English suggests that he is from Canada..史密斯先生的口语表明他来自加拿大。2. insist作‘坚持认为、坚持说 ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )”讲时,后面跟一种事实或客观情况.从旬不用虚拟语气。例如:He insisted that he had seen the film.他坚持认为他看过这个电影。3.在“I am surprised /sorry+ that从句”和“ I regret + that从句”中,从句谓语动词要用should,其中,should不可省略,意思是“竟然”。表示说话人的惊讶、懊悔、失望等情感,需用虚拟语气。例如:I am surprised that he should have been so rude to you.我很惊讶他竟然对你这么粗鲁。
